RESEARCH

My work focusses on the intersection of human and computer vision for tasks such as scene recognition, visual search and depth perception in natural scenes. I am interested in developing computer vision algorithms which can visually interpret scenes for place recognition and navigation, and use scene context to support object detection and recognition. I am also interested in how these processes occur in the human visual system. My work combines computational modeling, including Bayesian models and deep neural networks, with behavioral methods, including psychophysics, eye tracking, and large-scale online experiments.
